On Monday night, Kyle Young switched his commitment from Butler to Ohio State. Coming out of Massillon Jackson, Young intends to enroll at Ohio State shortly so that he can start working out with the Buckeyes. Head coach, Chris Holtmann precedes Young. Last summer, Holtmann encouraged Young to choose the Bulldogs over Ohio State.

Rated as the No. 77 player in the country, Young is a four-star forward who is hoped to help the Buckeyes basketball team. He stands as 6-foot-8 and is 205 pounds, and joins Andre Wesson and Keita Bates-Diop on the team. Young does play better offense than Funderburk, and is more versatile than Wesson. Wesson was a choice of Holtmann and Butler for the 2016 recruitment, but Ohio State was able to top them.
